Irish Food Safety Authority (FSAI) published a guidance document for food supplements business operators and consumers on the safety of “probiotics” in food supplements in Ireland. In the document it is confirmed that “probiotic” is considered a non-authorised health claim under Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. The document also provides the safety criteria to use when assessing the safety of “probiotics” in food supplements, evidence that a food supplement producer should use to demonstrate the safety of “probiotics” when producing a food supplement. It also describes the probiotic strains and provides recommendations for food supplement producers when producing food supplements containing "probiotics".
